No Kill Shelter

A neutered male gray domestic cat, approximately four years old, available for adoption at the West Valley City-Taylorsville Animal Shelter Thursday March 27, 2014. Less than two years after West Valley City and Best Friends Animal Society teamed up to reduce the euthanasia rate at the community shelter, the facility has achieved no-kill status. The West Valley City-Taylorsville Animal Shelter now has a 90 percent save rate. One reason for the drop in the number of animals being put down is a trap-neuter-return (TNR) program for stray cats.
